This may be a bad idea , but compression in brtfs seems to be only using one core to compress. Depending on the CPU used and the amount of cores in the CPU we can make this much faster with multiple cores. This seems bad by my reading at least I would recommend for writing compression we write a function to use a certain amount of cores based on the load of the system's CPU not using more then 75% of the system's CPU resources as my system when idle has never needed more then one core of my i5 2500k to run when with interrupts for opening eclipse are running. For reading compression on good core seems fine to me as testing other compression software for reads , it's way less CPU intensive.
